Norwegian TV Producers Seek Norwegian-Americans

A television production company wants to give Norwegian-Americans in the Midwest a chance to go to their ancestor's homeland.

Producers of Norway's version of "American Idol" and other shows say they're looking for outgoing Americans with Norwegian ancestry to go to Norway and compete for a $50,000 prize in "The Great Norway Adventure."

Participants must be 18 to 60 years old and can't have traveled to Norway before, apparently so the producers can film their initial reactions to all things Norwegian.
